10 yo me on his way to include his day, month and year of birth in his reddit username that cannot be changed and to get enough karma on that account to not want to delete it.
-
And yet you ended up here
-
I'm glad I did!
-
-
-
Name and domain both deceased
-
and domain
Nope. mail.yahoo.com
-
-
-
At least you weren’t born in 1988.
-
Yes, Angelfire!! My first website was there. It was ✨ sparkly✨ and quite lovely. 😂 I only ever see people talk about Live Journal nowadays, which I think was after my time.

DaBestHackr@aol.com checking in. Warez for life
-
Warez is pronounced like “where’s” right? My friend said it like Juarez, the place in Mexico, and I can’t help but hear it like that in my head.
-
Yup. Always said where's
-
dwarfs?
-
Yes, “where’s”, as in cracked softwares.

I find it incredibly annoying that Google won't let you merge or transfer purchases to a new account.
-
YES BITCH! I'm stuck using this ancient account I'd really rather not in order to access my purchases. Luckily most of the things I've bought are no longer available. However I did just buy premium for Boost for Lemmy.... Fuck it. I'm buying it again.
Thank you for the reminder for me to switch over. I actually needed that.

While it's not quite the same, Google does allow you to stay signed into multiple accounts. Just click your profile photo in the upper-right and click "Add another account". After signing into the other account, you can seamlessly switch between them. The same steps can also be used for any Google Android app.

-
same email for 20+ years, if i was starting over, i would choose something shorter and easier to spell
-
You missed your chance with your account here too
-
I made that mistake with my first vanity domain. It sucked having to spell it out every time lol
-
-
Oh god don't remind me, I STILL have stuff tied to that email
-
Friend got locked out of Instagram account because yahoo deactivated their email. Instagram flagged the email as inactive. After my friend forgot their password, Instagram wouldn't send pw reset emails even after reactivating the account. They also has no direct customer support whatsoever, so that account was lost.
-
-
More like 8 yr old lol
-
I got pretty lucky that 1) my usernames have all been pretty tame if a bit boring and 2) I never published anything horrible under my IRL name
-
Bank: and your email is "TigOlBiddies69 @ email com?"
Me: "Yes is there a problem?"
-
When I was in college I got an early invite to Gmail, and did the fistname.lastname address.
All my day jobs have also had the same format, as does my university faculty ID (I teach night classes).
It's kinda handy that you just use my (unique) name and the organization to get in touch with me.
Though it's super annoying on my phone's autocomplete since the screen above the keyboard shows "firstname.lastname@...." 3 times and I don't know which is which.
-
I do find that interesting all your jobs use the same name format. My jobs have all had different formats lol
One was first initial last name, one was last name first initial (same as my school), my current one is just first name which is cool because if there are any other people who come here later I will be the original one lol, etc
Also my second job had four people with the same name as me, but one of them was much older and died while I was still working there, then I left a year later so then they were down to two. lol

-
I still keep my Hotmail/Yahoo/etc., but I've gotten my name as a domain and use that for professional communication.
It has catch-all support, so whether you send an email to hi@name.com or "XxX_360noscopegamer_xXx@name.com", I still receive it.
-
I do the same. And if someone abuses a particular alias I block it.
-
Wait, so you can just willy-nilly name emails for your domain for different online services and see who's selling your data pretty easily then right?
I mean... who isn't selling our data but still lol
-
Yes! I've literally found out about a data leak this way before it was announced publicly.
-
Exactly and then you can block that one addressband you dont get spam anymore. You can make the addresses up as you go btw, it will receive every email sent to your domain anywaya
-
I just set that up. Pretty useful
-
-
-
You guys are still using the same email?
-
Trying to get highscore on haveibeenpwned.com. 37 so far
-
-
Thank goodness Gmail came out so I could get away from my Yahoo email.
-
you will be thanking protonmail, tutanota or posteo.de
-
-
When I was like 11 I made two emails, one with a dumb name and another more professional one that's just my name. I didn't want to send emails to adults with the dumb name one because I didn't want to explain it.
11 year old me was way too serious.
-
My first Hotmail address was based off my football position and jersey number. During high school I changed positions and numbers along the way, making it obsolete like a year after creating it
Still useful for signing up to things I know are gonna spam me with bullshit though, the ad copy can join old MySpace reminders.
-
Ah, mister SafetySafety88 ?
-
-
My first was dingdong86@aol and then dudeguy2202@yahoo
Today I use something more professional, last name + my first and middle initials.
-
Same, I made a more professional email address that was easier to tell people over the phone. I didn't think at the time that my middle initials are A & T.
Now the confusion is I say my email addres is "firstname at lastname @ gmail.com"
-
-
Just... get a new email? I use a separate email for every account now
-
The way indeed https://simplelogin.io
-
-
Does anyone remember when marijuana.com allowed to create a free email?
-
I use it as an alt now
-
Had my hotmail since the 90s..
-
I still use my Hotmail account. I created it 9/12/2001. The shock must have been so great that I needed to make my first email account. Why yes, the handle is related to Godsmack's second album.
-
-
I have 689 in my email address that I use for most things. I only learned that it was a slang around a year ago.
-
what's it slang for?
-
It's like 69, but with rimjobs. Good thing is that it's not widely used.
-
Maybe six ate nine?
-
-
-
Source on the kitty?
-
Idk I have pretty normal usernames. Never had those dodgy cool ones, Ig I was boring all along
-
The school shutting that email down
-
I’m in this meme and I’m kind of okay with it.

After 20-25 years, it's more or less used for a spam pit and less important things now. No sense walking away from it when there's no finances or other dangerous things attached
